"Analyzing several high-profile accidents involving complex and automated socio-technical systems and the media coverage that surrounded them, I introduce the concept of a moral crumple zone to describe how responsibility for an action may be misattributed to a human actor who had limited control over the behavior of an automated or autonomous system. Just as the crumple zone in a car is designed to absorb the force of impact in a crash, the human in a highly complex and automated system may become simply a component—accidentally or intentionally—that bears the brunt of the moral and legal responsibilities when the overall system malfunctions. While the crumple zone in a car is meant to protect the human driver, the moral crumple zone protects the integrity of the technological system, at the expense of the nearest human operator."<

Great. Humans taking the fall for technology.

Damn, haven't thought about that book for many years.

The concept behind the story seems a lot less fictional/unlikely than it used to 20yrs ago!

This would be a win for Facebook and Twitter/X.

Thanks for sharing.

All too often the free and open alternatives (or these days even just the non-subscription alternatives!) involve compromising some features or convenience.

But not always.

Same as Australian carriers. Mine is $A10 /day (about $7 USD). If you're travelling for a long time the cost can eventually add up and it's possible to get some cheaper travel sims. But it's just so much easier to not do anything and use your phone as normal.

Big improvement from the old days of roaming.

Sounds like you don't want to do this, but I am loving my Nvidia Shield TV Pro.

I've installed Projectivity Launcher on it and all the apps I want. It's such a smooth, clean experience.

Whether it's Netflix, Tivimate, Kodi or Plex, it all runs super smoothly, no stutters, no ads. Highly recommend.

The backlit, voice capable remote is really nice too.

For me, I think adding Projectivity Launcher over the top of it took it from a good device to a great one.

It's let me customise the thing just how I want it.

As for voice, I find it handy rather than typing text with the remote when searching in YouTube etc.

It's long, but well worth the read.
